A woman today knows that the power of her femininity is very important.

A runway is spectacle. It’s only fashion when a woman puts it on.

The most important beauty is not that with which you were born, but the beauty of character which grows through a woman's life and maybe never stops growing.

I do not have one theme for each season, I just try to make beautiful clothes all year round.

I want to make clothes that people will wear, not styles that will make a big splash on the runway.

What women have achieved in the last 50 years, I wish men would have achieved in the last 100.

Fashions change and with rare exception are forgotten by the public. But the classic fragrances, like an invisible dress, endure. Fragrance must be introduced properly. A fragrance is like a signature, so that even after a woman leaves the room, her fragrance should reveal she's been there.
